The Peninsula chaebol started by rescuing Samsung's little princess.

Li Haorong's large hands roamed over Li Yinxin's body, her smooth skin feeling as silky as silk.

He gently inhaled the fragrance of her cascading hair, and the faint scent made him unable to resist. He gently lifted her chin, intending to kiss her.

However, what he saw then was Lee Ji-hyun's face.

"Oppa..."

Li Haorong was slightly stunned when he saw that face.

"Bang bang bang..."

A knocking sounded suddenly, and Li Haorong opened his eyes abruptly, only to find that Li Zhixian had disappeared and he was now facing the ceiling of his bedroom.

What? It was just a dream!

"Brother, it's time to get up!"

Li Haoyang's voice came from outside the door.

"knew!"

Li Haorong replied.

After seeing off his two younger brothers, Li Haorong couldn't help but sigh:

"Is this what a young body is like? It's terrifyingly strong! But why is it Ji-hyun?"

With these questions in mind, Li Haorong got up and washed up.

Upon entering the living room, the television was showing SBS's "Good Morning," a morning entertainment program that combines news, celebrity interviews, and idol specials.

Li Haoyang heated up the milk and bread and was eating breakfast while watching TV.

Why are you up so early today?

My younger brother, a freelancer, usually sleeps until noon, so it's rare to see him get up this early!

"Jang Woo-hyuk is recording a song this morning, I have to go and keep an eye on him!"

Music producers in the peninsula are different from those in China. They are not only responsible for writing lyrics, composing music, and arranging, but also participate in the production of singing, dancing, and even album covers according to the singer's preferences, habits, and style.

As he spoke, Li Haoyang took a big bite of bread, as if he had an irreconcilable hatred for bread.

Li Haorong also sat down and first drank a glass of warm milk to replenish his energy.

"In response to the rise of MarsNet, Naver's Chairman Lee Hae-jin granted an interview to our station!"

At that moment, the news on television caught Li Haorong's attention.

Lee Hae-jin graduated from the Department of Computer Engineering at Seoul National University and previously worked as a research and development engineer at Samsung SDS Research Institute.

He founded Naver in 1999, and in 2001 it merged with the company of Kim Bum-soo, the later founder of Kakao.

In just a few years, their company has become the most valuable internet company in the peninsula, and its search engine is the fifth largest search engine in the world.

The head of such a behemoth appears on camera as a typical STEM guy.

His unkempt appearance, black-rimmed glasses, and plaid shirt only reinforced the stereotype of Li Haorong!

"The success of MarsNet proves that social networks are feasible on the peninsula!"

In fact, our company has always had plans to launch a social network, but we were a step too late.

On New Year's Day 2006, our company's social networking site, Naver, will officially launch!

At that time, we will bring a brand new experience to the netizens of Peninsula.

"Bro, are they launching a social network too?"

Upon seeing this news, Li Haoyang's expression changed drastically, and he quickly looked at Li Haorong.

Since learning that Mars.net was his brother's business, he has started to pay attention to Mars.net's news, especially since Mars.net has become deeply involved with the entertainment industry recently, which has made him understand more about it.

"That's normal. This isn't just my business. These people have a keen sense of smell, even more so than a dog's, when it comes to making money!"

"Aren't you worried at all?"

Seeing Li Haorong's confidence, Li Haoyang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"A website can't be built just by burning money!"

After saying that, Li Haorong finished the last sip of milk, got up and went back to his bedroom to change his clothes, preparing to go to work.

Upon seeing Li Yinxin again, Li Haorong immediately recalled his experience from the previous night and the dream he had that morning, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Li Yinxin's reaction was similar to Li Haorong's. Usually, she was very outgoing in front of Li Haorong, but today she was unusually quiet.

As a result, an eerie silence fell over the entire vehicle.

Just as Li Haorong was thinking about how to break the awkward silence, Li Yinxin spoke first.

"This morning on the phone, I clearly rejected my brother's investment!"

"Really? Calling him so early in the morning, won't that disturb his sleep?"

Li Haorong continued in response.

"I'm talking to you about investing, and you're telling me it's disturbing his sleep?"

Li Yinxin couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Haorong, but still replied, "He called me!"

"It seems our young master still values ​​MarsNet quite a bit!"

While Li Haorong was joking, he also felt a little strange.

Lee Jae-yong currently holds the position of Managing Director of the Business Planning Office at Samsung Electronics, the core subsidiary of the Samsung Group. In addition, last year he also served as a registered director of the joint venture between Samsung Electronics and Sony.

This also shows that Lee Kun-hee was indeed grooming him as his successor.

The Peninsula Conglomerate has always been committed to passing down its power to sons rather than daughters. If they don't have a son, they would rather adopt one than pass the reins of the company to their daughter.

Normal conglomerates like the Daesang Group are extremely rare.

Given this situation, Lee Jae-yong's position as crown prince is quite secure. So why would he set his sights on MarsNet, a company completely unrelated to his main business?

What's more, this is his younger sister's business!

Wait, little sister?

Li Haorong suddenly seemed to understand something and turned to look at Li Yinxin.

Li Yinxin noticed Li Haorong's gaze and blushed slightly, saying, "What are you looking at me for? Watch where you're going!"

Li Haorong obediently turned his head back, but inwardly he was thinking:

Naver, Samsung Group, and SK Group (which has yet to be announced) which has been eyeing the internet for a long time, as well as Facebook from abroad—this scene of being surrounded by powerful rivals and facing an impending storm is truly exciting!

Upon arriving at the company, Li Haorong went straight to the desk of Kong Canyu, the head of the development department.

Following the recent explosion of MarsNet, Mars Technology has expanded its workforce to nearly 50 people.

As for long-term employees, Li Haorong not only gave them a raise, but also promoted them!

Park Jung-hyuk has become the head of the marketing department, while Kong Chan-woo has become the head of the development department!

Even when promoted, Li Haorong still needed to maintain a system of checks and balances.

However, Kong Canyu's expression turned quite unpleasant when he saw Li Haorong, who had just promoted him.

Because the last time Li Haorong took the initiative to find him, he hadn't slept for five whole days!

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm not some kind of devil!"

Li Haorong said with a kind smile.

"N-nothing!"

Kong Canyu twitched the corner of his mouth; this tone... it's even more like it!

"I have a new task for you!"

"Again?"

Sure enough, after hearing this, Kong Canyu felt his liver start to hurt again.

Seeing Kong Canyu's somewhat ferocious expression, Li Haorong quickly reassured him, "Don't be nervous, there's plenty of time this time, just half a month!"

"What does the president want to do?"

"I want to integrate a gaming platform into MarsNet!"
